Most 21st century careers and jobs that pay a living wage will require some training past graduating high school, many at least an associate's degree or technical certification. Therefore, figuring out how to pay for post-secondary education (beyond high school) is all the more important. The good news is that Moore Norman Technology Center's College Connection assists students in learning about the different types of financial aid, finding scholarships, and even writing scholarship essays! MNTC students have several opportunities throughout the school year to attend Steps to College Success workshops and events to get post-secondary financing options.
